This is really cool video. This Palace is also significant if you are into garden design. As it holds a kind of best in its class of Arabic/Islamic gardens. You would be surprised how much rich people care about their gardens. So this one is an inspiration. And not just to the leather panted garden designers. But lots of people that visit this palace get inspired by the graden there.

I wonder if there is even a single player in the tournament who cares about the dress code. It is hard to imagine anyone who was serious about chess caring about the material a player’s pants are made of. No, I think this falls squarely in the realm of bureaucratic administrators who have nothing better to do than assert their power and maintain the illusion of a connection between talent (great chess players) and the trivial signaling games of the upper class (the style of pants one is wearing).
If someone says an event is in X days, they almost never mean a multiple of 86k seconds.

Really, I don't think you can reduce any of these to a specific number of seconds. If someone says an event is in 14 hours, the meaning is a lot closer to 14±½ * 3600 than it is to 14 * 3600.

I have all of Michael Pont's books. The reason? Everything is in C (lots of code) and not a line of assembly in sight! And his focus is on time-triggered architectures suitable for real-time in addition to "standard" event-triggered architectures. Thus one gets to learn both the control paradigms in a unified manner. His earlier books use 8051 while the later books deal with ARM. And all of the code/teaching is for "industrial strength" apps and not merely for "hobby" purposes. So here too you get a broad spectrum.

I’ve noticed that nowadays, music often uses more generic melodies. Famous influencers, even without a background in music, can create songs for their fans.

Listening to retro music makes more sense to me these days.

Why would turning on the heating require cell service? If you’re out of key fob range do you really need to pre-heat the car?

The only possible use of cell service is for infotainment and even that’s questionable in a world of ubiquitous cell phones.
A nice reminder for the end of the year at the end of the post:

> So what's the point of travel? … For me, it's something like, what becomes salient to you. I started asking questions about China I hadn't even thought to ask about America.

> Another thing I noticed is more personal. Two weeks of being AFK, and of having the excuse of using a burner phone to put off messages, helped me clear the cache of thoughts about … minutiae. …

> It's a good reminder that what's lacking in life is not time. It's focus. If you're working on what matters, you can advance leaps and bounds in 8 hours. And if you're just clearing the slog, you can spend a lifetime staying in the same place.
Has anyone tried uploading pure noise (e.g. random number generator output) to see what the model does? Curious about this.
Although I'm generally pro coming down hard on dark patterns, I'm uncomfortable with that last example. To me, it's just differentiation. You can have the bare-bones service (digital only) with a higher interest rate, or the deluxe service (paper statements, in-country phone support, etc) with a lower interest rate. That doesn't seem inherently bad to me, it seems like a company offering two different products.
I dunno, I’ve never seen any of these sort of “things will get better by getting worse” theories pan out. I’d wager that if it becomes difficult to tell real from fake on the internet, people may just become more atomized and paranoid, retreating away from social interaction altogether. So for that reason I hope the Dead Internet Theory doesn’t come to pass.

Yes, this is often overlooked by VHCOL urbanists.
I split my time between a VHCOL city and a MCOL exurb.

My VHCOL city neighbors / friends all have laptop jobs like me. They all vote like me. They all went to competitive colleges like me. They had to pass through all the same sorting mechanisms in order to afford the VHCOL lifestyle.

My MCOL exurb friends & neighbors include building contractors, teachers, professors, cops, cafe owners, etc. Their voting and education are heterogenous.

I don't think the UK (Or US, other other European) government are too torn up about the possibility of another Windrush scandal.

But I generally agree with you. A physical passport offers a degree of psychological and real "security" that the promise of some cloud-hosted credential absolutely does not.

As a minor aside, I (US citizen) was once able to able to enter the US (at Toronto Pearson airport) despite having left my passport in some hotel. I just told the stern American guy "Yo soy American." Apparently they have ways of telling.

Reminder that there was no cultural preference, this was done (like in other places) to keep the industrial engine running, mainly carmakers. The more roads there are, the more cars people will buy and the more they will drive, this, mixed up with redlining and other racist policies created the environment we live in today.

This was not the only way it could have gone, but it ended up being like this due to the government kowtowing to the moneyed interests.

My current employer is in the hiring / initial candidate-contact space. The main use of LLMs (pre-trained) are things like categorizing incoming emails, or providing friendlier access to a company's FAQ information.

One of the "tracer bullets" I like to bring up involves legal compliance with data removal requests, and correcting flawed or malicious data in general. Both are issues which tend to lead towards a limited use of LLMs to accomplish small well-defined tasks, instead of any "you are a software suite which obeys the following requirements" nonsense.
These days, yes, but this particular design point predates both LuaJIT and Lua popularity as a gaming scripting language specifically. I remember first seeing it sometime circa 2002 - I believe that was Lua 4.0? - and I was stricken by how much it reminded me of PHP and JS in this regard.

But yeah, my point is that one of the most common arguments against using associative arrays as the data structure is that perf overhead is unacceptably high if you use it as a list, but we've learned how to implement it in a way that can adapt to this use case at runtime just fine a loooong time ago. But regardless of perf, it just makes more sense to keep sequences and maps separate, not because of any specific technical reason, but because it's easier for humans to reason about things and model them that way.
Show HN: DocIngest – Download and save documentation from any URL
Have been getting tired of having wrong version api docs for building anything with LLMs, just wanted to curate all latest api docs in a single place and also let it be discoverable for others.

It is integrated with firecrawl to pull any website data and make it available as md(markdown) file, yet to add bells and whistles or even guardrails to it. But hope you folks find it useful.

I had previously built https://github.com/Amal-David/gitbook-downloader but whenever i tried to extend to other docs format, had to write a lot of code so just went with firecrawl for now. Stumbled upon gitingest and loved their UI so took that as a reference and built the platform. Some limits of 250 pages max and some sites not fully supported. Feel free to give any specific feedback, will try to progressively iterate on them.
Spotify has cheaper family and student plans. To my knowledge there’s no way to make AM cheaper. In addition there’s no ad free version of AM that’s being supported by paying subscribers like there is for Spotify - though I haven’t heard the numbers on P&L on these free users.

Chips have been present in passports, even the all-paper ones, since the 1990s, with all the same information. They’re called “Biometric Passports”. The plastic card in newer passports is for durability and making them more difficult to forge.

But the chip doesn’t contain “everything that matters”. The chips have biometric info (hence the name) like legal name, sex, nationality, photos, and sometimes fingerprints. But the bulk of a passport book is made up of tens of pages where stamps, stickers, and even entire visa documents can be stapled/attached. None of these are present in the chip.

You can just ignore the DMCA claims, but your service providers cannot, at least not without the risk of assuming legal liability themselves.

Also, cynical as it may sound, I assume the rise of a popular, successful peer-to-peer YouTube alternative would, in the US at least, result in the passage of even more consumer-hostile legislation, think "three strikes"-style anti-torrent laws with actual teeth (e.g., rather than requiring ISPs to make mostly idle threats to cut off Internet service against their own interests, imagine if ISPs were instead empowered to collect fines resulting from default judgements against repeat infringers, with a percentage of each fine collected paid to the ISP).
It's meaningful to a bored police officer in a less-than-democratic country who has nothing better to do than make my life annoying.

If you live somewhere that's reasonably dense, this is possible. I live in a very walkable city that is also socially quite dense. Most of my social links are people who live a walk or a short bike ride away. During the warm months, if you are around town you will see people you know, and have the option of conversation.

Put simply, you feel like you live in a community without having built a commune or something.

Unfortunately it's kind of hard to tell what cities have this "social spatial density." There are denser urban areas that feel less communal, and far sparser ones that seem moreso, it's related to overall population density but not perfectly so.
> In a less urban area, this is far less like. The core of intellectual pursuit isn’t just smart people, but the confluence of people who have the same interests and who are also well positioned.

Currently, a physical passport is globally accepted as its own "verification." That's the point.
Indeed, but the rules for doing so are straightforward and easy to apply almost mechanically. Indeed, if you are writing in C++ or Rust, you just use a smart pointer that does it for you.
Good, choose this neighborhood for the public schools and "suburbia light" vibe, eg proximity to target but also walkable to nice coffee shops / restaurants / local things.

The obvious alternate beneficial use is the ability to immediately disable the hardware in case a serious safety issue (the kind that triggers product recall) is discovered.

Yea, lots of comments in here advocating for full digital or “just use passport cards” are coming from a narrow perspective of only having to use passports in established travel routes like major international airports or developed countries. Most of these suggestions just simply wouldn’t work in the majority of the land border crossings I’ve experienced in places like Laos, Cambodia, rural China, Thailand, Peru, Bolivia, etc.
The UDHR is more a list of (short descriptions of) ideals than exact wording of the law to get there or when other things take priority.

That's not how any of this works, though.

Spotify has the same licensing agreement.

The difference is that Spotify has a free tier (lower revenue from those users), their users listen more, and they may also have more customers in lower-income countries with lower subscription rates.

Which is to say - of you took a specific category of users - say, US-based paying subscribers and kept their listening activity the same - every streaming service would pay out roughly the same amount of royalties per-stream for that group of listeners.

I completely agree. There are a variety of reasons why a person might be digitally excluded.

Governments need to make sure that people can access the services that they’re entitled to through a wide variety of channels, including physically visiting an office if necessary.

Though I will say, at a practical level, you will find that it’s increasingly difficult for people with criminal records to travel internationally (due to entry requirements).
Hopefully, this sends a strong precedent on privacy. Kudos as privacy wins again. Cyberseb.com
Parent comment said generic, he offered these as counters, so he called them generic.
Haha, I unironically considered this as well, but prefer the "always today, only today" clean automatic view and lack of a physical artifact to lose/forget.
I travel for work often enough that being able to get to it on my phone consistently is also an advantage.
I imagine it wasn't very fun to wake up to the news that you lost your job, and then to have your name personally called out :( I don't doubt you were just as mislead as your customers were. I hope you are able to take a few days to process the situation and decompress, and then you rebound quickly into your next position! I don't think anyone will hold it against you personally :)
> ...and not using commas is just asking for trouble for zero benefit.

Have you ever worked with a source format that elides the commas? I work with one (Common Lisp) regularly and am telling you that it's not zero benefit. Clojure takes a middle ground by treating commas as whitespace.
Triple sorry but if these aren't generic, then by definition they weren't what the parent comment was talking about, since it did say generic.

In Horizon the catastrophic decision was to endow robots with the ability to draw energy from animal and plant matter, that's why they consumed all organic matter.

Self-replicating nanobots alone wouldn't cause the end of the world. To end the world you really need something that can consume resources many times faster than the entire biosphere combined- without forgetting that the biosphere includes us.
I've been to a handful of trailer parks with wonderful communities, and a lot of the people are not poor, just saving money, and stumbling upon community!

I'm also a nomad and have found that, with a little extra effort on my part (it helps that I'm extroverted and skilled with productivity apps), I can easily see many friends all over the world.

Also there was a study that found the reason some old folks lived super long in Italian towns is because of community.
If you want to have a say in how software works, then you have to control how companies run.

If Technical folk are not on the Boards or have controlling share in an org, or don't know how to get into such positions then they have very little to no say in how anything works.

There are countless examples were technical people object and get replaced, sidelined or fired, cuz they are totally unprepared in how to win such age old political and financial fights. If Oppenheimer, Engelbart and the Google brainiacs who protested recently got pushed aside, then its beyond obvious how the story will end for anyone else.

The lesson from history for anyone serious about this stuff is - develop business+finance acumen, or develop alliances with business+finance power.
>You're just saying it's desirable that some people be at the bottom even in a scenario where the opposite could be feasibly achieved.

What's wrong with having people at the relative bottom? Trying to force equality onto society does not have a good track record. We can raise the absolute bottom past the point of poverty while also not upending social structures that have served us well for centuries.

>All on some theory that the human mind... simply... won't be able to take it without going insane?

I'm saying transformative change across the whole of society shouldn't be undertaken lightly. I don't need to prove that a world where human labor is obsolete would be damaging to the human psyche. Those who want to rush ahead just assume things will be just fine. They have the burden of proof. We've seen how bad things can get when the social engineers get it wrong. We're at a local peak in human flourishing for a large part of humanity. Why should we pull the lever on the unknown in hopes that we will come out ahead?
> I'm still not sure how they couldn't afford to hire better staff,

Because they never figured out how to automate enough of the process to scale revenue up without scaling expenses.

All the investments in these VC funded companies is a bet that the companies will develop automation that will allow them to not hire staff, period (relative to the growth in customers).
This is a simplification. Type 2 diabetes is heavily polygenic, but the genetic connection could be... you are genetically predisposed to like sweet food! In which case, the diet intervention would work, most people just aren't willing to do it.

Many genetic predispositions are behavioral, it's not all pure metabolic effects.
It's a bit like taking a photo and it coming out surprisingly good.

You just pointed the thing and pressed a button. Yet you feel accomplishment.

Sure you might have chose a lens, depth and tried to point the things somewhat precisely. Then you sat at your computer to cut enough of the edges and fiddled with some curves so it feels nice for you. But ultimately you didn't make any of it. Machine made it all. You just guided it with the knobs provided for you. Yet you feel accomplishment if you make something good because you also made hundreds of it that were crap.

I concur except about the bureaucratic administrators. I think they do this because the upper class will replace them if they don't do the work of asserting the upper class's power.
Had a friend who sold boats for a living. One day he was at a business meeting where the attire was listed as "business attire". When one of his buddies, another salesman, showed up wearing shorts, a t-shirt and sunglasses, my friend made a snarky remark about him not getting the memo about the attire. His buddy responds, "I don't know what business you're in, but I am in the boat business."

It's not wholly a good or bad thing. It's a complex thing, with large secondary effects that people habitually overlook.

One typical effect of increasing any kind of regulation is that large incumbents tend to benefit disproportionately compared to small operators and newcomers, for several reasons: (1) larger operations can amortise compliance costs more easily; (2) larger operations legitimately contain people with useful expertise in helping government decide the shape of the regulations (and will propose kinds of regulation that correspond as far as possible to their own existing practices, and to practices that competitors would find costly to implement); (3) larger operations have the wherewithal to lobby for regulations that are to their benefit and to competitors' detriment, irrespective of how good those regulations are for other stakeholders. (2) and (3) together lead towards regulatory capture, at which point the regulations are almost purely a drain on all other participants with no upside.
